Even if PP was a bunch of sweet old ladies teaching girls to lock their knees together, the government has no damn business confiscating the *earnings* that I work damn hard for and giving them to *anyone* else.
James Madison (the father of our Constitution) wrote disapprovingly, “I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.”
Dr. Thomas puts it this way, “What exactly is your *fair share* of what someone else has worked for?”
Do you remember the beggar on Fiddler on the Roof who asks the poor but generous Tevye the Dairyman why he should suffer without his handout just because Tevye has fallen on hard times?
The fact that poor Tevye works hard for everything he earns and has a large family to support is totally lost on the beggar.
